Money: Thy Name is Woman

Women with money and women in power are two uncomfortable ideas in our society. ~~Candace Bushnell

Do you know the origin of the word “money”? It might surprise you.

The English word for money came from a Roman goddess, whose name was Juno Moneta. In ancient Rome, she was the guardian of finances. Her temple became the first treasury. It was in her temple that the earliest coins were minted.

Think about what this means. As women, money and power are our birthright. Don’t let anyone try to tell you otherwise!

Love this post! To answer your question, I was surprised to hear that money was named for a Roman goddess. However, what surprised me even more was that this information has not been made more public. Obviously this fact conflicts with mainstream society and the financial systems that govern us so it’s been somewhat of a secret. Keep spreading the word…you’re the best! xo

In ancient Indian culture there is something that also indicates that women are supposed to have money . A woman is not supposed to walk into a room looking stressed, frazzled and anxious about not having enough money for what she needs, because it kills her feminine energy. She is supposed to feel joyous to attract people.

I would need to dig further to find the source or the name of that ancient document that states that information . Sorry for the vagueness.
